Sounds like he is the type of shot maker that we need. Terry is just a pure shooter. So sounds like Terry is more one-dimensional.

Good playmaker, needs to work on shot a little, athletic, somewhat long. I think he's definitely an upside pick as I'd like to see more from defense. He was definitely the go-to guy for Kentucky this past year because everyone else struggled to create. Hagan was too wild, Quickley couldn't beat anyone. He was clutch and I feel encouraged that he's only a freshman (however he is 20).

He learned alot from Rondo, wait till he meets big Rondo.

Don't know anything about him. Watching highlights - his release is VERY low. I don't think that shot will work unless it's open catch ans shot.

He shot 83% from FT and was a freshman taking some ill advised shots at times. He'll be fine as a shooter.

Love the pick. Maxey is a physical kid who can create and shoot it a bit.

His release looks low but that can be fixed.

He's a guy that you can play in the last 6 minutes even in the playoffs and he's not going to be a target for the other team on the pick and roll.

Whoever works with him, make sure it's not the Sixers, or else that shot is ****.

No one who has followed this class closely says they're worried about his jump shot.

TV men bad
